State-of-the-art and New Developments of Multi-degree-of- Freedom Piezoelectric Motors for Experimental Mechanics and Measuring Devices
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper covers state of the art and latest development of piezoelectric motors at Kaunas University of Technology (Lithuania), that are related to the R&D of laser scanning and deflecting devices, measuring systems, nano-resolution positioning devices on the plane, various applications including teaching aids for Mechatronics studies and even “intelligent” toys. All presented motors are oneor multi-degree-of-freedom (multi DOF) resonant devices and generate continuous or step motion of the positioning object.

Topology Optimization of the Thickness Profile of Bimorph Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting Devices
Due to developments in additive manufacturing, the production of piezoelectric materials with complex geometries is becoming viable and enabling the manufacturing of thicker harvesters. Therefore, in this study a piezoelectric harvesting device is modelled as a bimorph cantilever beam with a series connection and an intermediate metallic substrate using the plain strain hypothesis. On the other...
متن کاملField effect transistor nanobiosensors: State-of-the-art and key challenges as point of care testing devices
The existing health care systems focus on treating diseases rather than preventing them. Patients are generally not tested unless physiological symptoms are appeared. When they do get tested, the results often take several days and can be inconclusive if the disease is at an early stage. In order to facilitate the diagnostics process and make tests more readily available for patients, the conce...
متن کاملPareto Optimization of a Two-degree of Freedom Passive Linear Suspension Using a New Multi-objective Genetic Algorithm (TECHNICAL NOTE)
The primary function of a suspension system of a vehicle is to isolate the road excitations experienced by the tires from being transmitted to the passengers. In this paper, we formulate an optimal vehicle suspension design problem with the quarter-car vehicle dynamic model. A new multi-objective genetic algorithm is used for Pareto optimization of a two-degree of freedom vehicle vibration mode...
متن کاملExtraction of Nonlinear Thermo-Electroelastic Equations for High Frequency Vibrations of Piezoelectric Resonators with Initial Static Biases
In this paper, the general case of an anisotropic thermo-electro elastic body subjected to static biasing fields is considered. The biasing fields may be introduced by heat flux, body forces, external surface tractions, and electric fields. By introducing proper thermodynamic functions and employing variational principle for a thermo-electro elastic body, the nonlinear constitutive relations an...
